The Social Media Witch Trial
Of Trump — And America

Original Article

Posted By: Black Conservative Voice, 5/8/2021 5:14:00 AM

Pursuant to the Dangerous Individuals and Organizations policy — which sounds like it could have only come straight out of either Hogwarts or the Politburo — Facebook’s “independent” Oversight Board has exiled Donald J. Trump from the realm of modern communication. Put another way, about 20 unelected former political leaders, journalists and human rights activists have suffocated the speech of a former president of the United States of America.

Comments:

"So there you have it, America — the Bill of Rights is kaput — subsumed to relativism, faceless technocrats, and an international oligarchy."

This so called "board of advisors" constructed solely for some kind of faux appeal to higher authority is now in charge of free speech in America. I'm not buying it, thank you.

Do they really think Trump supporters will no longer support him if he's not on social media? What desperate idiots they are.

The right believes in our founding principles, which led us to become the greatest nation for good on earth, the left does not...it's as simple as that.

FTA: "Perhaps even worse, some Facebook executives are non-U.S. citizens who essentially rule over U.S. citizens - and do so without any knowledge of the founding's conceptions of tolerance and freedom of expression." Hmmmmm, non-U.S. citizens ruling over U.S. citizens without knowledge of Founding Fathers' conceptions of tolerance and freedom of expression. I read recently that Lifesite News has been banned from Facebook. I wonder how many Facebook executives are non-Christian and might have a certain bias against faith-orientated groups such as Lifesite News. (Though I am told that Facebook is a platform, not a publisher.)

Since I have never been on any 'social media', whatever goes on there doesn't actually impact me directly.

Yesterday morning a video surfaced where a patriot who looks like a real giant decided to face BLM rioters who were blocking a highway in Texas. Activists in Plano, a city about 20 miles (32.2 km) north of Dallas, marched through the streets on Sunday to raise awareness about the death of Marvin Scott III. The 26-year-old black man died while in police custody at a county jail in March. Seven officers were fired and one resigned over the incident, which was ruled a homicide in April.

A former Olympic weightlifter claims that female athletes are being told to “be quiet” about transgender weightlifter Laurel Hubbard ahead of his Olympic debut. Hubbard is a 43-year-old biological male competing as a woman. Should Hubbard pass the New Zealand Olympic Committee (NZOC) fitness and performance standards, he would become the first trans athlete to compete in the Olympics. Tracey Lambrechs, a former Olympic weightlifter from New Zealand, expressed disappointment at the prospect of Hubbard taking away the opportunity to compete from women.

Israel shared three cell phone numbers used by Qasem Soleimani with U.S. intelligence in the hours before American drones unleashed Hellfire missiles on the Iranian general last year, Yahoo News reported Saturday. The revelation sheds new light on the role that Israel played in the killing of Soleimani, who the State Department says was responsible for hundreds of U.S. troop deaths as the head of the Revolutionary Guard's elite Quds Force. The drone strike occurred shortly after midnight on Jan. 2, 2020, as Soleimani and his entourage were leaving Baghdad's international airport.

Three people were hospitalized Saturday evening after a shooting in Times Square left the youngest victim, a 4-year-old girl, injured and started the NYPD on a manhunt for the gunman responsible. A senior NYPD official with direct knowledge of the investigation confirmed to NBC New York that all three victims were unintended targets of the shooting, and a preliminary investigation suggests none of them are related. The young girl was struck in the leg, a 24-year-old woman was hit in her thigh and a 44-year-old woman was shot in the foot, police said.

In April 2020 Democrats, Black Lives Matter, Hollywood, NBA, the tech giants, and Major US Corporations launched their official War on Police across the United States. The consequences of their actions have been devastating, resulting in 1,990 more homicides in urban centers this past year. The Democrat War on Civil Society resulted in a 33% increase in homicides across the major urban centers across the United States. We can all blame this on Democrats. But what happens when the Police themselves protect BLM who wants to abolish them instead of honest taxpaying patriots.

About one-third of the employees of software developer Basecamp have quit their jobs after the company’s founders asked them to focus on developing software, rather than get involved in politics at work. Basecamp co-founder and CEO Jason Fried told employees that “every discussion remotely related to politics, advocacy, or society at large quickly spins away from pleasant.” “We make project management, team communication, and email software. We are not a social impact company,” Fried added, encouraging employees to focus on their jobs rather than politics while in the workplace.

A county Democratic official from Northeast Texas is facing demands to resign after he used a racist slur to refer to South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott following the GOPers rebuttal to President Biden’s speech Wednesday night. “I had hoped that Scott might show some common sense, but it seems clear he is little more than an oreo with no real principles,” Lamar County Democratic Party chair Gary O’Connor wrote in a since-deleted Facebook post, Fox News reported. Scott, one of only three Black U.S. Senators and the only Republican, has faced a barrage of racist attacks since his response to Biden’s address to Congress.

It's already ridiculous that the foundation of this country relies on who the president is when one of nine geriatric Supreme Court justices either dies or retires. It's doubly ridiculous then, that a Supreme Court justice would understand this fickle structure, see its constant abuse by one political side, and yet refuse to retire when the party that most aligns with their judicial philosophy is in power. (Snip) Apparently, history really does repeat itself, as another left-leaning, 80-something year-old Supreme Court justice is refusing to retire at a time when the Democrats have a precarious hold on the Senate, and

Genetically modified mosquitoes have been released for the first time in the United States as part of an experiment to combat insect-borne diseases such as Dengue fever, yellow fever, and the Zika virus. UK-based biotechnology firm Oxitec, which is funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, said it released the mosquitoes in six locations in Monroe County’s Florida Keys: two on Cudjoe Key, one on Ramrod Key, and three on Vaca Key. It’s part of an effort to help tackle a disease-transmitting invasive mosquito population—the Aedes aegypti mosquito species—that’s responsible for “virtually all mosquito-borne diseases transmitted to humans,” according to the company.

How the Brits Did It -Here’s why American conservatives should pay attention to the recent special election in Hartlepool, United Kingdom: The British Conservative Party has modernized and mobilized itself to win a parliamentary constituency that the Labour Party had held for nearly 60 years; indeed, the Conservative candidate won the seat on May 7 by more than 23 points. Now that’s a story worth paying attention to, with an eye toward our replicating it here.The parallels between American conservatives and British conservatives are strong and more recently even stronger, as the two parties have taken a populist, pro-worker, anti-globalist turn.
